On the 15th, President Pezeshkian said on his social media that after intensive
discussions a large majority of the Iranian parliament approved the text of an
Iran‑U.S. memorandum of understanding, which he called a test of the U.S.’s real
resolve to respect the rights of the Iranian people. He said the Supreme
Leader’s guidance secured clauses protecting Iran’s national interests.
Pezeshkian described the drafted MoU as the product of months of talks and said
if its terms are properly implemented it would be a proud national document. He
added the MoU is an important step toward stopping the war and beginning
negotiations, but cautioned a final agreement has not been reached and Iran
remains prepared for all options.
